C17200 Beryllium Copper for Fine Fatigue-Resistant Wires in Pacemakers and Defibrillators

NGK positions C17200 Beryllium Copper for fine fatigue-resistant wires in pacemakers and defibrillators. C17200, or CuBe2 / Berylco 25, is described by NGK as the reference beryllium copper alloy across strip, rod, wire and other forms. It reaches the highest mechanical strength and hardness of any copper alloy after age hardening while still offering good formability, fatigue strength and stress-relaxation resistance. NGK links beryllium copper wire to high-cycle medical lead applications. That makes it a sensible fit when engineers want reliable performance, long service life and cleaner production outcomes.
